Reduction-Sensitive Tioguanine Prodrug Micelles

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

Colloidal drug and prodrug conjugates have unique targeting characteristics for tumor vasculature from the blood and for the lymphatics draining a tissue injection site. Tioguanine and tioguanine-generating prodrugs have been investigated as anticancer and ...

Controlling a Single DNA Molecule in an Electric Field by Means of In Situ Atomic Force Microscopy

Giovanni Dietler, Jae Sun Jeong

DNA is the bio-polymer containing the genetic information needed for the development and functioning for all living organisms. It has a polymeric structure consisting of units called nucleotides, each consisting of a non-polar, hydrophobic interior (the ba ...

Conformation of Ring Polymers in 2D Constrained Environments

Giovanni Dietler, Guillaume Witz

The combination of ring closure and spatial constraints has a fundamental effect on the statistics of semiflexible polymers such as DNA. However, studies of the interplay between circularity and constraints are scarce and single-molecule experimental data ...

Polymers Interfacing with Biology

Harm-Anton Klok, Frederik Roman Wurm

The development of various controlled radical polymerization techniques as well as site- and residue specific strategies to modify peptides/proteins with synthetic polymers have made polymer chemistry a powerful tool to address materials problems at the bi ...

Tuning the pH Sensitivity of Poly(methacrylic acid) Brushes

Harm-Anton Klok

The pH-induced swelling and collapse of surface-tethered, weak polyelectrolyte brushes is of interest for the development of actuators or to allow pH controlled transport or adsorption. This contribution discusses results of an extensive series of quartz c ...

Thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of blends of bitumen with metallocene catalyzed polyolefins

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, John Christopher Plummer, Chiara Spadaro

A high penetration grade bitumen has been blended with up to 50 wt% of two different grades of metallocene catalyzed linear low density polyethylene (m-LLDPE) in order to investigate the potential of these and similar copolymers as a substitute for styrene ...

SPARC-derived protease substrates to enhance the plasmin sensitivity of molecularly engineered PEG hydrogels

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

Bioactive hydrogels formed from the Michael-type addition reactions of end-functionalized poly (ethylene glycol) macromers with thiol-containing protease-sensitive peptide crosslinkers have previously been described as matrices for cell-induced enzymatic r ...

Synthesis of Responsive Polymer Brushes for Sensing Applications

Nicolas Bertrand Schüwer

During the past decades the field of sensors has been subject to much attention due to an increased demand for (bio)sensors and environmental monitoring. The efforts have been concentrated to create sensors which are reliable, highly sensitive and selectiv ...

Synthesis of Functional Polydepsipeptides via Direct Ring-Opening Polymerization and Post-Polymerization Modification

Harm-Anton Klok, Nadja Franz

This contribution explores different strategies for the synthesis of side chain functional polydepsipeptides. First, the ring-opening polymerization of side chain functional morpholine-2,5-diones is revisited and the optimized reaction conditions used for ...
